When it comes to MTTS:

I have just one simple question.... Not that the $30.00 is going to break me, but why exactly are we paying for MINI to have the largest marketing event they can have. Shouldn't MINI pick up the entire tab? Aren't we giving them enough free advertising and marketing just driving our little go-carts around having a blast? I understand paying for all our club sponsored events, like MOTD, but free marketing, especially when they rape us at the stealerships? You would think that they would maybe have us go to the MINI dealers and pick up our passes or mail them to us as MINI owners, but pay cash money for their marketing their new cars. Sorry I don't get it.

 

I see you also posted this in the main MTTS thread, in which someone has already replied saying there will be free food and live music at most stops with no additional charge. In addition the various venues have to be rented out. It also helps keep a better head count if people have to pay some $$ to participate instead of just showing up or not showing up after committing.

In addition, part of the proceeds go to to the U.S. Olympic Committee to support the Paralympics Movement and the 2012 athletes who will compete in the London Games and 2014 Paralympic hopefuls. For MTTS 2010 part of the proceeds when to the Red Cross.

And don't forget the Goodie bag, if you like things like that.


So, are you joining us for MTTS this year?
